Right ill have to try this with the paper clips. I had an attempt at redoing it without basting, but the result was the same, pleats that looked to be even but it just would not sit right, had that wavey look.

is there anywhere in the UK that does decent PV kilts. I went with heritage of scotland because i had read a few good things about them. and the Kilts i seen hanging up looked pretty good. The 1 i got was taken from another shop as they had none in a 30 waiste and the 32 was too big from me. Im thinking ive been really unlucky and got a bad one.

the pattern not lining up how it should i dont mind so much, its more getting it to sit like a kilt should is what really bugs me.

Id love to make my own kilt, but i just dont think i have the skill to build one properly even if i done lots of practice. Im not good at doing things perfectly straight.

having it rebuilt woiuld be nice but would it really be worth the expense? how much would that cosT? ive seen kilt makers charge $250 and then the cost of the fabric to build 1 from scratch. id imagine having someone take it apart then redo would just not worth it, id be better of just having 1 custom made.

oh Im in the UK
